New! Pre-order ‘Forever’ by Charlotte Olympia

Charlotte Olympia is on my list of designers to own at least one pair of shoes from in my lifetime. She’s making it hard for me to resist that, and with my usual reasoning of ‘if it has my name I deserve to buy it’ then she’s pretty much on top of the pile. What with my name being Charlotte and all…

She’s also definitely a contender in my bridal shoe dilemma, which I’ll have to figure out when the time comes. Without sounding ungrateful, probably the most important decision I’ll make on my wedding day is what heels to wear. To me, what I choose to walk down the aisle in says the most about me on a day that is all about me and my other half.

They’re called Forever and they remind me of a Disney Princess shoe, but not in a tacky way, oh no- in a grown up, not-a-princess-anymore, queen-to-be way. They’d definitely make you feel like Cinderella, that’s for sure. You’d have to wear them with a mid-length tutu style dress too, and plenty of bright beaming red roses or carnations. Or (and now I’m getting carried away) in an Alice In Wonderland themed wedding with jam tart favours…hmm.

I like that they’re not your usual platform with a heart stuck on the top or cut out. The straps add something different, so you’re looking at them and wondering why you like them so much, and the cream ruffle behind the hearts make them stand out so much more.

About Shoenique Me

I'm Charley, a writer with a soft spot for any kind of shoe and two wardrobes to prove it. It started with a pair of my Auntie's green leather and wood wedges and grew into the pretty collection that it is today rather quickly.

Combining the two things I love the most, here is where I write about the shoes I love, own and want.

When I'm not browsing online shops, you'll find me updating my other blog Blonde In The City. Want to know more about me and my writing? Drop me an email (and a cuppa if you're making one - no sugar, ta!)
